Can anyone direct me to a link to replace the resister ? I did a little searching but didn't see the thread. I Know it's been discussed here before.

Medman Ryan has a fix he has shared with us, it may well be what your controller needs:

Thanks for directing woodsmaster to my fix, ew. Since I fixed my controller I have had no problems with it.

This year I installed the 12 volt fan in the top housing of my boiler, as discussed in other threads. I used a 120F snap disc control to turn the fan on if the enclosure gets too hot. It doesn't seem to run often, but it's nice to know that the fan is there to cool the controller if needed.

Haven't got a chance to fix it yet. It's suppose to warm up this weekend so I'm going to have to make time to work on it. Mine don't have any vent holes in the casing so I will be adding some.. I need to clean tubes, patch the nozzle again and should be good to go for the winter.
